Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
मराठी मूळ
काय तुझी ऐसी वेचते गांठोळी । मांहे टाळाटाळी करीतसां ॥1॥
चतुराच्या राया आहो पांडुरंगा । ऐसें तरि सांगा निवडूनि ॥ध्रु.॥
कोण तुह्मां सुख असे या कवतुकें । भोगितां अनेकें दुःखें आह्मी ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे काय जालासी निर्गुण । आह्मां येथें कोण सोडवील ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
Is Your treasury truly being depleted? Is that why You keep delaying? O King of the wise, O Panduranga, if that is so, then say it plainly. What pleasure do You find in this game while I endure so many sorrows? Says Tuka, have You become formless and beyond reach? Who then will deliver us here?

Longing and Separation
Cries from the dark night of the soul: remonstrances, complaints, and desperate yearning.
